The primary mission of Heroes Helping Horses | Horses Healing Heroes (6H) is dedicated to helping Veterans, Law Enforcement and First Responders living with anxiety, depression, and PTSD, for whom the program is free of charge. 6H is not necessarily a horseback riding program and is open to all ages and abilities. 6H is more about interaction and building trust with the animal while giving our heroes an opportunity to release and reconnect their emotions while enjoying the company of like-minded individuals who have been through similar events and a lifestyle only we can truly understand. Horses have a gift of empathy; they feel what you feel. You can hold your emotions from a human therapist; you cannot lie to a horse.
